When Jesus died, it was a triumph!

I know that sounds strange, but when He died He took upon His shoulders the sins of every single person who ever lived, and all those yet to be born. He was able to do this because He had committed no sin in thought speech or action. He was faultless.

The physical man that was Jesus had ceased to be alive, but His Spirit went on to defeat Satan in Hell and three days later returned to His physical body and rose from the dead. After meeting with His followers (who were astounded to see Him, to say the least), His whole physical and Spiritual being was lifted from the Earth into Heaven. This is why we say that Jesus is alive!

If you believe in God’s son Jesus, acknowledge that you have sinned and accept the gift of forgiveness for all of your sins, then Jesus will enter into relationship with you. He will guide you into a better life than you have ever known, as soon as you invite Him into your life. That’s power!

If you feel you are ready to do this, follow the simple prayer below and then try to get in contact with someone else who knows Jesus (you can contact us if you like and we will happily talk and pray with you).

“Jesus, I believe you are the son of God, I believe you came to Earth, died and rose from the dead. I know that I have sinned and I am truly sorry for it. I accept the sacrifice you made for me on the cross. I want to live the way you planned so I ask you now to come into my life and lead me. Thank you for your forgiveness, Jesus.”
